I love Common Craft videos. The fact is that simplicity sells, and Common Craft has a great niche delivering videos that explain technology simply using video and audio.

Google Mobile had a video on their blog today that looks very much like a Common Craft production.

If it’s not a Common Craft production, Google definitely has some explaining to do! I didn’t see Google on the client list although there are other Google-specific videos out there by Common Craft. As well, I found it interesting that this video doesn’t have any Common Craft advertising. Did Common Craft do this video for Google Mobile?

To check out Common Craft videos as they arrive, be sure to subscribe to their YouTube channel! Here’s my favorite - how to protect yourself from Zombies:

Oh yea… and I guess the Google Mobile feature is kind of cool, too!

They do have a google video on their site for Google Docs, so I suspect they did the one for GMM as well.
